The California Mastitis Test (CMT) is a practical and efficient method for detecting subclinical mastitis in dairy cows. It works by mixing a small amount of milk from each quarter of the cow's udder with a reagent in a paddle with four wells. The key to the CMT is the reaction between the reagent and the somatic cells present in the milk. When the cell membranes are disrupted, the DNA inside reacts with the reagent, causing a gel to form. The thickness of this gel is an indicator of the somatic cell count, which increases with infection. The test is scored on a scale from 0, indicating no reaction, to 3, which signifies a strong reaction and likely infection. This simple yet effective test helps farmers monitor the udder health of their cows and take early action to treat mastitis Ready-to-use CMT test liquids do not require any mixing and can simplify the testing process. These solutions are designed to be simple, fast, and easy to use, providing dairy farmers with an excellent tool for early detection of mastitis, potentially saving time and resources by managing udder health more effectively. • 1 liter bottle • CMT Reagent Test Liquid • Ready to Use!

 The 2QT Fluid Feeder with Plastic Probe is an essential tool for the health and well-being of young livestock, particularly calves that are unable to nurse naturally. This can be due to a variety of reasons such as illness, weakness, or rejection by the mother.  The feeder's design ensures safe insertion and fluid delivery directly to the calf's stomach, which is crucial for their survival in the early stages of life. It is also used for rehydration of stressed cattle, providing a means to deliver electrolytes and other necessary fluids to promote recovery.

Its durability and ease of cleaning also make it a reliable choice for repeated use in various farm conditions.  The product features a 24-inch flexible esophageal probe, which is carefully sized for calves, ensuring that it cannot be accidentally inserted into the trachea, thus reducing the risk of aspiration and potential drowning.  The feeder's crimp valve allows for easy control of the fluid flow, which is slow enough to encourage the calf to produce saliva, aiding in proper digestion. The durability of the feeder is notable; it remains flexible even at 0 F, making it suitable for use in various environmental conditions. Additionally, the ease of cleaning is a significant advantage, as the bottle, tube and probe can be quickly disassembled, ensuring hygiene and the ability to maintain the feeder in optimal condition for repeated use.
